Inspecting
Coodanup homes
In Coodanup (6210), our Perth South inspector examines properties across a mixed stock of eras, from pre-1970s to present-day builds. Based on a smaller indicative sample of 19 reports, we frequently observe issues such as External Wall Cracking due to Settlement, found in 57.9% of reports. Trees in Close Proximity to Dwelling were noted in 42.1% of reports, and Downpipes Not Connected to Storm Water in 36.8%. These findings are often influenced by the local Pinjarra sand plain over reactive clay sub-base, which can contribute to settlement and moisture-related concerns. We check for these and other common defects to provide a clear picture of the property's condition.

Questions we hear about Coodanup
What does the local geology mean for properties in Coodanup?
Coodanup's geology of Pinjarra sand plain over reactive clay sub-base means properties can be susceptible to settlement issues. The reactive clay responds to moisture changes, potentially leading to movement in foundations and structures. Our inspections consider how this geology might impact the building's integrity.
Are termites a concern in Coodanup (6210)?
The estuarine moisture and local geology in Coodanup can contribute to termite pressure. While our inspections focus on building defects, we also identify conditions conducive to pest activity, such as Mulch and Garden Beds Against House, noted in 31.6% of our reports. We recommend a separate pest inspection to specifically assess for termites and other timber pests.
